Old Donation Episcopal Church
A Prayer for Transition
Good and ever gracious God, who has loved and guided Old Donation for centuries, we are thankful for your gifts and your presence. In this time of transition, we pray for our parish family. Grant us your peace. Give us wisdom and humility as we seek your will. Guide us so that we may find a Rector who will continue to walk with us on our journey, responding to Jesus’ call to live as your beloved community. This we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.
Discernment Phase
Transition has entered the Discernment Phase with the posting of the Community Ministry Portfolio. During the Discernment Phase, the Transition Discernment Team will be receiving, reviewing, and ranking applications. Then priests are selected to interview and narrowed down to the finalists. During this time, the team will prayerfully consider the applicants and the needs of the parish. The team will come to consensus for the one applicant to put forward to the Vestry to call as the new rector of Old Donation Episcopal Church.
Much of the Discernment Phase is Confidential
